Sean is an old man who lives in the Canadian Rockies in a small village on the side of a mountain by the water in the Kootenays, a region named after the Kutenai First Nations people in southern Canada. He lives simply and consciously in tune with nature, he consumes little and enjoys the beauty of the place every day. Daily tasks punctuate his winter days.

Far from the artificial pleasures of industrial civilization, Sean cultivates his own asceticism, based on a "happy sobriety". Ignoring the rules of our new world, his traditional way of life remains much healthier and more modern than most of his contemporaries who are trying to find a way to heal themselves.

About — EYD is an independent publishing house created in 2018 by Caroline de Greef that aims to explore and promote contemporary photography by publishing artist books. Time and its daily lyricism are thus at the heart of the various works published by the young publishing house.

The desire to bear witness to this world and the intention to introduce emerging artists is also just as tenacious as the desire to support them over time. This young catalogue shows today's world with its human failings and ordinary miracles and will continue to be built according to these themes.

The collaboration with artists is intended to be sustainable as a mutual support and a shared emulative trust - like that which binds the artist Ilanit Illouz and EYD, the first published artist whose work has since been rewarded and acquired by numerous institutions (Jeu de Paume, Paris Photo, Prix du Public Arles 2021, etc.).

EYD works with photographers and artists Élise Toïdé, Thomas Gauthier, Tokio Okaida, Anna López Luna, Mounir Gouri.
